HELLO OPERATOR - CRASH & THE RADIO STAR

“Friday night you want to hide, but Tuesday was okay"

Do you miss the days of 70's-80's power-pop group The Cars? Well, my friend and I have found their successors. Toronto's Hello Operator are so good that I had trouble trying to decide which track of theirs to post. Classic rock 'n roll songwriting meets bright synths and energetic vocals on Crash & The Radio Star. It's criminal that this group's music has not found a place on mainstream radio. Their debut ep is really a tiny masterpiece of its genre. Just try to get the synth riff from this song out of your head.

...Transmissions come in from outposts all over the universe... Unfamiliar melodies stream into our radios... Fronted by colorful aliens with big voices... The music begins to catch on ... It's in our heads and it refuses to leave... And we like it...

I post music on this blog out of love for the artists and in the hope that I can promote the singers and bands that I am so passionate about. If you are (or represent) an artist and would like any content taken down, don't hesitate to email me at the link above and it will be removed immediately.
